The class were able to take a step towards Indian mythology without really having to learn too much at once.
Some of the short movies on youtube scared them as they are still a little young but the pictures in this book they simply couldn't get enough of!Ganesh is easily a character for young children to relate to - he's an elephant after all! Why he is so, my class don't really care, but they like that he has lots of arms!
So, the task? Let's make a elephant head and see if we can dress up for an awesome finale at the end of the month wearing Indian Saris too!
It was so much fun and we even decoratedna framed print out of the main picture for a momento!
